ABOUT GOPOWEREV
GoPowerEV has designed and built the best technology for electric vehicle charging at multifamily housing complexes. The electric vehicle (EV) market is exploding, making up 25% of all car sales in California and growing. Electric vehicle charging capabilities are quickly becoming a necessity rather than an amenity at multifamily properties, thanks to advances in legislation, building codes, and consumer demand.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a startup on the verge of exponential growth. We are a team of expert innovators, with experience in tech (Zoox, Amazon, Alcatel) and are advised by our real estate partners at Greystar, Glencrest Group, GP Muirfield Company, and more. Our mission is to bridge the EV divide and bring equitable charging infrastructure to multifamily housing and the convenience of charging at home. With readily available, easy-to-use charging and low energy prices, everyone can have access to cleaner and low-cost vehicles.
